Twitter Lifts Suspension of Twidroyd, UberTwitter

Ahh, drama in the Twitterverse. While we’re used to it being between larger-than-life celebs, this time around it was a very public brawl between Twitter and a third-party app developer that caused a mini-scandal. Twitter had suspended two of the most popular Twitter apps – made by the fast growing Twitter app company, UberMedia – last week, and reversed the suspension on Sunday.

Both Twidroyd for Android and UberTwitter for Blackberry are among the most popular Twitter apps for their respective devices. And they’re both made by UberMedia, a growing Twitter-based app empire owned by Bill Gross – a man who is rumored to have had some not-so-friendly brushes with Twitter in the past.
